The real thing to report on is how while (aparently, because initial reports said no crowd deaths, then Fox reported a crowd death, and now everyone is reporting a crowd death), noone ran. They just kinda mulled around, then started chanting "USA. USA. USA."
Behold gentlemen. Fascism manifest.
I've seen the crowd member shot and they were working on him. It's on Twitter. He didn't make it
Nice pic dude.
My point was the whole being desensitized to gunfire and someone being shot right in front of you, and responding to not only a public shooting, but an assassination attempt with "USA! USA! USA!" like they were at fucking Medieval Times eating a chicken with their bare hands and drinking diet coke and the green knight just took a flail to the bread basket.
I have learned when to hesitate before I ingest media, and I'm still assessing the situation.
For either eventuality, we (Americans) are all so screwed, and the rest of the world is on notice.
On top of the other comment, they’re stadium style bleachers. They are not easily evacuated.
